Abstract
|
|
|
|
Periodontitis is a progressive and chronic inflammatory disease affecting the hard and soft tissue structures, which support the teeth. Periodontal disease that occurs particularly in the maxillary anterior region is accompanied by alveolar bone loss and gingival recession and causes both functional and esthetic gingival issues. Regenerative surgery is widely used as one of the most predictive treatment modalities for intrabony periodontal defects, and coronally advanced flaps with connective tissue grafts can be used to resolve gingival recession. In this case report, we describe the results of periodontal regenerative surgery using bone grafts and enamel matrix derivative combined with connective tissue grafts performed on two maxillary canines with intrabony defects and gingival recession. Within the limitations of this study, in deep intrabony defects and gingival recession in the maxillary canine, periodontal regenerative treatment with connective tissue grafts showed stable and clinically acceptable long-term outcomes.
